Chicken drumsticks marinated in a yogurt-spice sauce and roasted until crispy outside and juicy inside. Prepared with little effort and baked on a single tray together with potatoes, this practical dish is a favorite for large gatherings.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the marinade

5 min

In a bowl, whisk together yogurt, olive oil, pepper paste, crushed garlic, red pepper flakes, thyme, cumin, salt, and black pepper to make a thick sauce.

2

Marinate the chicken

60 min

Coat the chicken thighs thoroughly with the sauce, rubbing it under the skin as well. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour; the seasoning will penetrate the meat during this time.

3

Arrange on the tray

8 min

Spread sliced potatoes in a roasting pan and season lightly with salt. Arrange the marinated chicken on top of the potatoes, skin side up.

4

Bake in the oven

55 min

Cover the pan with foil and bake in a preheated 200°C (390°F) oven for 35 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 20 minutes until the skin turns crisp and golden.

5

Check and serve

2 min

Caution: Before serving, insert a knife into the center of the thickest thigh and check that the juices run clear and the meat is no longer pink. Serve hot with the potatoes.

Reminder

Important: Marinating the chicken for at least 1 hour, or ideally overnight, lets the spices penetrate the meat and tenderize it. Caution: To make sure the chicken is fully cooked, pierce a knife into the thickest part; the juices should run clear and the internal temperature should reach 74°C (165°F). Contains dairy (yogurt). Leftover chicken keeps in the refrigerator for 3 days. Contains no nuts, gluten-free.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

If you rub some of the marinade under the skin with your finger, the spices come into direct contact with the meat and it turns out much tastier. For a crispy skin, pat the chicken lightly dry with paper towel after taking it out of the marinade before baking.
